Audiobooks

Although Lantern Audio has been a trusted audiobook production partner for the largest publishers in the world like Hachette, Penguin, Random House, Harper-Collins, Macmillan,  and Audible.com, we recognize the importance to also cater our services to the Independent Publishing community.  We have a team dedicated to Indie authors to walk them through their choices and the process of creating and distributing their audiobooks with Lantern. All of our clients, regardless of size, have access to the same pool of voice over talent, our cutting edge studios, and our experienced production team.  We give the same care and hold the same high standards for all of our audiobook productions.

We recognize that many Independent Publishers and Self-Published authors don't have the connections or time to handle the mechanics and financial side of distribution of your audiobooks.  For this reason we have created a distribution platform to get your audiobooks in the hands of the major audiobook sales, streaming and library channels, including market leaders like Audible.com and Apple Books.  We have even created www.Lanternaudiobooks.com to allow authors a distribution platform that you retain 75% of all revenue earned, allowing you the highest possible reward for the hard work you put into marketing your audiobook titles.  Whether you produced the audiobook with Lantern or not, we are happy to distribute your audiobook.  To find out more about our distribution services go here

Lantern's team is dedicated to ensure your audiobook production and distribution process is seamless.  To ensure we have you covered for all possible needs we also offer other a la carté services that you may not even know you need such as assigning an ISBN number for audiobook sales, adapting or creating your book's cover art for audiobook dimensions, and tweaking audio files to confirm to the required specifications of each distributor.  We also have a rolodex of trusted partners for help with manuscript editing, physical book printing, and any other need that might come up. Let us know how we can help!
